I have been lurking for approx. 4 weeks and I am trying to send
a question to the list. I hope this is the correct method.
This will be my third year of vegetable gardening. Last year I
planted turnips, and they grew wonderfully, but when I harvested them
I was shocked to find they were infested with root maggot. I pulled
them all up, and then planted carrots and radishes in the same spot.
Both grew and were also infested with the maggots.
I treated the area with wood ash and replanted radishes, but the
maggots were still there. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I'm
not sure of the zone I am in, but I live in Seattle WA.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Julie
